Ha ha....just the fiver this morning from last nights Daily Play!!..no need to retire yet!!!
Put these pics on from yesterday at Hazelhead..checking out the site for working today and tomorrow....very cold...try to capture the whole spectacle of ice burning off the vegetation and walls...steam coming up everywhere!!!!....and then there was this shot walking back along the path...hmmm...not sure if I captured it or not..?...50/50? Anyhoo...imagine my surprise when I turned up to the last remaining bit of the arboretum that required cutting back to open it up to the public..or so I thought!!!...the CSO boys must have done it last year and never said..hurrah!!!...although that leaves me with the conundrum as to what to do now...so i will work on the entrance which does not look good at all....does not say "there is something in here that you need to walk through....so that is what we will do today. Supposed to be minus 3 now so hopefully it will have burned off and heated up by then.
So, I received a letter back from my old landlord, giving me a paltry sum back and an explanation. Of course, I am an old hat a this..although a bit rusty I must admit, so I sent a letter back stating i did not agree and all of that..and that I was going to a small claims court to reclaim some more of the money..so we shall see what happens there..bit stressful but i have nothing to lose...and I do feel i haven;t been treated in a very professional way at all..so...there is nothing better than a good old morale battle of wills!!!
Tenants have moved out of Perth...seemingly a split..which is always a shame to hear...as in the break...not the loss of rental income...although that is a bit of a poo poo..but we will get there in the end. Heaven's above!!!...a prospective tenant wants the tartan sofa bed removed..he he...ok...tartan isn't everyone's cup of tea but damn...that was a beast to get up 2 flights of stairs!! He also wants the bed removed but he can dangle for that...it is in perfect nick.
My good lady..and I have to be careful her as she now is in control of the black art of blogging......treated me to a night away at a four star hotel in Inverurie...Thanestone Country House.....decided to do the lady justice and buy a new suit...I wasn't about to walk into a four star restaurant in a pair of jeans...even though some did...the food was excellent and vfm....the hotel was lovely and it was really nice to chill out with my lovely lady. Not that I don't like doing so in amongst all the kids and life's complexities..but it was nice..slippy floor in the bathroom though...dangerous in heels...her not me.
back to work and have the sniffles.....after going out without a hat on and neck warmer thing...should have known better than that so no point moaning...early nights seem to be making a difference.
Lots of work coming up..including a school which has dropped me in it..hence the early rise to try and sort it for next week...also working on Saturday with the boys...S has had a monitor fitted to his chest in case he has another seizure and then we are supposed to man handle his chest to switch the fecker on..i said to R yesterday in the office that I would rather be concentrating on making sure he doesn't swallow his tongue rather than operate the fecking machine...he he...bunch of cyborgs in this team..me with my back and S with his heart thingy.
Ah well...I could always be chained to a desk taking crap from a despot whose only opportunity for control in their life is to shout and physically intimidate their staff while they sell their souls for someone else's profit. Not likely..get it up ye's..on the same salary for a job i love to do.
Tara.
